“The elderly couple in it managed to get out through the boot of the vehicle as the doors were stuck. The driver, a man in his 70s had a suspected pelvic injury while his wife, who was in her 60s had a possible left arm fracture. Both were immobilised and ere taken to the Alexandra Hospital in Redditch.
“The Saxo driver, who was in his 30s, was checked over but was discharged at the scene.”
